I received a used copy from the owner of a second hand shop as a gift.
I thank God for this happening, i was already in my early sixties and had never managed to read a bible from front to back, I had tried several times but the dialogue was to dense for me and I used to put the book down. Fortunately this version published by the Bible Society in Australia 2002 was written in contemporary english.
I now read this Bible daily when i get up in the mornings and God plans my day full of blessings.
I started getting into surfing in durban at a very early age, love the sun and the sea,
am still active in my early seventies.
Thank you all for these wonderful bible publications.
